Damn, I do hope you and everyone involved are ok.

I’m guessing a little bondo and a buffer and you’ll riding pretty again...

this is what i was going to ask. to make that big of an impact in the rear, i'm assuming speed was a factor here as well.. not judging, just speculation..


glad you're still here... heal up well buddy.

WOW, sorry to see this....

My guess, in TWO wheel drive mode? (car is deadly with traction control off).

Glad you and the kids walked away relatively unscathed. It looks like the car did it's job ...

Glad to here everyone is ok!
Looks like it impacted ass first which is the best scenario one can hope for as it is the best for mitigating decel stress on the body; the trunk crumple zone is the best out of all your other options (front / side / offset / etc).
One question. How many miles/km on the tires and approx how much tread was left? I find a lot of the performance tires (and even all seasons) have a marked drop off in water performance even when they still have a healthy 50% tread left.

I had just under 11k miles on the clock.... I am assuming right at the half way mark on the tires... For that kind of impact the interior held up really well... Thank God...
